Debbie:

I am making a granny square afghan with huge squares. I am using cotton thread right now and the colors are shrimp and a spring meadow color that has greens, yellows, reds and white. I thought someone might like the cotton as opposed to the worsted thread. I also have Christmas colors and will begin a zigzag pattern with the Christmas colors. Maybe get them sent to PA before the holiday might be a nice gift for

someone.....

By the way my name is Karen and I have been a crocheter since I was 9 years old and am now 47 and disabled and not able to do much but this I can do and hope to brighten someones day. I have arthritis in my hands and have to take frequent breaks but I forge ahead. I really think this is a great charity and I have been searching for something like this for a while.
